Advice on MiA 2012

Can amyone give me opinion. I want to order mia 2012 rw 3csb over the internet. Is there anything that can possibly go wrong with this basses, something that i should be carefull about since i will not try it before ordering. I tried several models but in other finish, and the tone of every single one was kind of different (maybe due to diferent setup), but one thing i know for sure that neck fits me perfect. Has anyone had any problems with mia 2012? Thanks.

Don't sweat it. Should be fine. I ordered my 2010 on-line and it was fine. I've tried a few 2012's in a shop and they sound great too. I doubt there would be much difference between various 2012's sound wise, a little tweak of those knobs make quite a difference.

Just check it out THOROUGHLY in the store BEFORE you accept delivery and make any final payment that may be due. Give yourself plenty of time to play with it and get it set up at the store before you pay (if there's any payment due) and leave with it.

Problems are rare, but they do occur every now and then. Best to find them while the bass still belongs to the dealer and you can simply refuse to accept delivery.

That was good advice. A really good visual check to see if something is wrong, like a drop during shipping, it should be pretty obvious, cracked finish or a knock, or a tuning peg that is wonky, something obvious. The nut has a piece broken off. Check the case while you're at it too. Play up and down the whole fretboard in case some excessive buzzing or problem. Check that the electronics work. All very unlikely but it can happen.
